Retrospectives

ticker	mfe	mae	reflection
GOOGL S4	+3.08%	-4.72%	Signal: Direction was right — GOOGL closed the next day at 343.41, +1.56% above the 338.13 entry, so the overnight-drift call paid. Timing: Ambiguous and the data doesn't settle it. At decision time the stock was already +1.76% on the day (~350.26, consistent with the "biggest premarket movers" headline), which suggests the news move had already happened — yet the fill came at 338.13, roughly 3.5% below the decision-time price and below the prior close of 344.20. Nothing here explains that gap (late fill, reversal into the close, or a data mismatch), and it materially changed the trade: a fill near the decision price would have produced a loss. Exit: The scheduled next-close exit captured about half of the +3.08% peak and sidestepped a -4.72% trough — a wide ±4–5% swing for a one-day hold. The dominant factor is that the +1.56% result reflects where the close happened to land in an unusually wide intraday range (and an unexplained favorable fill), not a clean execution of the drift thesis.

📖 Glossary

S1 primary — trades the alert's primary ticker in the direction the article itself indicates; exits at the same day's close.
S2 counterparty — trades the inferred counterparty ticker (weakest signal, LLM-inferred sympathy); exits at the same day's close.
S3 peer — trades an inferred peer ticker (also LLM-inferred sympathy); exits at the same day's close.
S4 overnight — holds the primary ticker from today's close to the NEXT day's close.
Verdicts are decided top-to-bottom, first match wins; REPRICING is also the fallback when nothing else matches (2026-08-08 #220).
UNKNOWN — a needed price input (move since close or move in the last 30m) is missing.
PRICED — |move since previous close| ≥ 2.0%: already reflected in price.
REPRICING — |move in the last 30m| ≥ 0.5%: the tape is actively moving on it. Also covers a quieter move — |move since previous close| in [1.0, 2.0) with a quiet last-30m tape: still developing, not yet priced.
FRESH — |move since previous close| < 1.0%: a genuinely new move.
materiality — how market-moving the story was judged, 0-100 — alerts require materiality ≥ 70.
